Influencia de la envoltura formal del síntoma, las construcciones actuales de los roles de género y las redes sociales en la vida amorosa de los millennials de la Facultad de Filosofía, Letras y Ciencias de la Educación de la UCSG. Una reflexión psicoanalítica y sociológica sobre el amor en la posmodernidad.

Abstract

The following work aims at analyzing the influence of the formal sheath of the symptom, the current constructions of gender roles and social media in the love life of millennials from Universidad Católica de Santiago de Guayaquil, through out a psychoanalytic and sociological reading, in order to generate a reflection on love in postmodernity. The applied method in this investigation was qualitative, since the interviews and focus groups carried out could provide the necessary information to sustain in a better way the theoretical framework of this investigation. The bibliographic review, the theoretical work and the analysis of interviews and focus groups allowed to show the influence of the formal sheath of the symptom, under the considerations that it conditions a certain jouissance, position towards desire and the phantasmatical matrix, social media as a mean that predisposes to infidelity and the consumption of bodies, and the current constructions of gender roles as an agreement, in which, each couple gives in when it comes to functions they perform or positions they assume.
